“Fancy dress up restaurant in Wheaton. Mostly Italian and American food. People are well dressed but some were wearing informal clothes too.
It's seemed a little too loud in there
It was very cold inside, wish they can turn up the temperature.
Food was delicious. Even their desert was great.
The service is great and the lady serving us seemed to truly enjoy what she does. Nice to see that in a restaurant.“

“Everything we ordered, beef/sausage combo , baptized with giardinera + regular baptized beef with sweet peppers and an order of fries. The best!
Young man at the counter was very upbeat, genuine, and professional. He came to our table to help me download the new app and apply the points from my purchase. What a sweetheart.
The place was very well kept; clean, no napkins on the floor. Clean tables. Not like Port!//@$.“

“My husband and I owned a mobile Hot Dog Stand I ran it in Northwest Indiana. I sold Bari Beef Sandwiches. I was famous for my Beef sandwiches . I have and will always swear by Bari Beef!!!! We have moved all over the country the last 9 years and just moved to Bartlett Illinois. I just found out I live only 9.8 miles from Bari factory store …… I think I have died and gone to Heaven!!! On a side note. I had a deal for all new customers who questioned whether I had the best beef sandwiches. I told them “You buy my Beef sandwich and if you do t think it’s the best you have ever had I will give you your money back!” I have NEVER had to give anyone their money back!!! You are the best!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Wonderful place to dine., food was delicious and our server, Fidel, was thee BEST ever! Will definitely return when I’m in Illinois again.“

“Delicious food at competitive prices. If you use a credit card, there is an upcharge to cover the discount rate charged by the credit card company. Also, there was a Roselle fee included on the bill? Saw a great show by thr Jersey Girls trio.“

“Best Italian restaurant in the world! Fantastic atmosphere“

“Great pizza right here, used to love Little Caesar’s now I changed to Pizza Now because the pizza is way better“

“Paisans is quickly becoming one of our favorite restaurants. The bbq chicken salad is my favorite salad in the area. It's hearty, large portion, and always consistent. If you're into chicken vesuvio you should get it here yum yum yum especially the potatoes. We also enjoy their thin cut pizza because it's still thick enough to hold the toppings but is never burnt on the bottom like other places. The meat is quality too when it comes to the toppings we enjoy the pepperoni and sausage. The only potential negative is the restaurant is always extremely noisy but it's a pizzeria and bar so can't really expect anything different and the food is worth it.“

“Always greated with friendly staff paired with a fantastic meal and amazing wines. how could you go wrong!?“

“Great Food and service! Yummy wine and great Old Fashioned!“

“I got the cheddar cheese beef and Omg That was so delicious. I need to go back very soon to get another one.“

“We arrived late and were tired and hungry. Miss Maria was so nice and kind to serve us. My burger and my daughters salmon Caesar salad were wonderful. Miss Maria knew we were stressed out, she was there to take care of us. We were in town for my cousins funeral and Miss Maria was most accommodating of our needs. We returned in the am for a very nice breakfast.“

“First time we have been there after they took the restaurant over. Great food and service. We for sure will be back. Might even get our supper club there.“

“Great atmosphere…pizza was fantastic…They have outdoor dining which is always a plus.“

“Had a wonderful dinner celebrating a friend’s birthday. Great service, excellent food. Just wish it wasn’t so loud and they had more parking.“

“The service is FANTASTIC! The food is great (note: we were able to order off of the advertised menu or a lunch/dinner menu which we appreciated). The music was a little loud toward the front of the room but seemed to even out as time went on. The entertainment was absolutely lovely and I highly recommend Rockin' Ravioli to anyone who is looking to celebrate a milestone or for a fun group outing.“

“Great food, drink, atmosphere, people!“

“One of the best Italian meals ever. Had the pizza as an appetizer. It was great. We will be back soon.“

“Fantastic food, awesome people and highly recommend if you enjoy delicious food and a wonderful atmosphere.“

“You can’t beat the quality of the dishes they make…from scratch!! Best subs in the state and the chicken parmigiana is out of this world. Mike and his boys definitely get hospitality! Go now and get some!!“

“As usual, great pizza! Some people, many that I know, say it's better than Giordanos. The crust is thicker and crunchier and the amount of sausage and pepperoni is simply more than Giordanos, but they are both great pizzas! This Schaumburg location is very ample and clean, although a bit outdated in it's decor.“

“Julie and Sandy are the best. I had Delicious slices for lunch and I bought two NY cheesecakes for Thanksgiving“

“As a Chef critic i felt this place had a nice atmosphere and friendly service. I had the impression they were slightly understaffed and looks to be family run. The food was decent, however, the plating and some of the dishes were sloppy. A little pricey for the food that was served. I still gave a 4 star as the waitstaff was friendly and excellent.

Wheelchair accessibility: No“

“4 🌟 due to breadsticks. Otherwise, it would be 3. Service was okay. No italian music where we were sitting. All we were hearing were dishes, loud teens, and the kitchen. I ask the waiter what happened to the music in this section. He said he hadn't noticed but was going to check. Nothing came of it. I turned on italian music on my phone. The couple next to me said good choice. Will not return to this location.“
